it's ok, as long as you don't recompress the same file over and over again, which seems to have horrific results with webp. if you run a website, stick to using jpg and png until something that isn't cancer arrives and replaces everything.

Also this might be nore of a subjective thing but does anyone else prefer how Webp will smooth over images? Like it's bad for photographs where you want to retain as much tree bark detail as possible but IDK, I kinda like it for Anime images desu.

Mark my fucking words

one of the causes for *some* AI generated images looking smudgy or patchy is training with images that at some point were compressed with webp

the in loop deblocking filter that webp uses creates the same shitty plasticky flat smudgy patchy look

Maybe try viewing this on a computer screen instead of a phone? That said you don't need that much quality for phones, which is what webp seems to excell at vs JPG the most.

Chrome saves it as .webp, so at least you know what it is.
Firefox just pretends it's a .jpeg, so enjoy your upload failing next time you want to post that meme ;^))

Lossless WebP is good if you don’t need wide color and you only hate it because you can’t upload them here

Fuck you and all the webp haters ITT. My image board site converts all uploaded image formats to webp, INCLUDING animated gif's and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it. All non-shit tech supports webp by now and while you could use gifs, or convert them to soundless fucking mp4's, I'd rather use a format that mogs both jpg, png and gif to the moon and back.

>My image board site converts all uploaded image formats to webp
You're only saving storage and bandwidth if you're converting them to lossy WEBPs, in which case you're degrading the quality of every uploaded image like fucking xitter
>>
>>107422848
>only saving storage and bandwidth
I'm also saving the sanity for both myself and others. To be fair, my site also stores the original files just in case a lossless file format is essential to a post, but it's not embedded into any of the pages.
>>
>>107423017
>I'm also saving the sanity for both myself and others
>and others
How is converting uploaded images to WEBP doing that? I can understand if you're allowing users to upload WEBPs to stay under the filesize limit but look better than JPG, but converting a 500 KB JPG to WEBP is just making it look even worse to save a tiny amount of bandwidth like some jew

AVIF is already supported by both Chrome and Firefox too, so there's literally no reason to use WEBP
Probably the only reason why 4chan doesn't support AVIF and AV1 is because Indian users here don't have phones that can handle these formats

AVIF does that too except it's better

how you can tell an image is lossless or not? to me this is a big issue. I like the format of the image to tell me if the encode may be shit. yeah I know pngs can look like ass if they come form a jpeg. but is not the usual case.

There's literally no reason not to enable sound on all boards either. People give the screamer argument, but browsing boards with sound plus altchans with sound support, I know it's bullshit

look in the WebP for the string “VP8L” — that means it's losslessly compressed
of course one can losslessly compress a WebP from JPEG input, so that's not a guarantee of anything
